Is it necessary to change the lines in my kegerator if I have cleaned them with Star San followed by rinsing them with water after each batch?
Thanks Steve
 
If I follow this do they have to be replaced at some point? Can they last a long time?
 
No off flavors? No replacement needed.

EVAbarrier lines have become very popular (for beer and gas): inexpensive, durable, and low oxygen permeability.
It’s the original lines 10 years. No off flavors. So I’m good I guess?
Thanks, Steve
 
The one exception to this might be Brett and bugs.

I've just relined my kegerator (4 years with only a very cursory clean before batches) and I only did so because I was getting just a hint of Brett in my right-hand tap having not used it for 3-4 days. For the cost of 20 minutes time and about five quid in beer line, I'll probably be doing it annually from now on.
